Lou Stoppard reports on the Francesco Scognamiglio show

Report by Lou Stoppard on 21 February 2013.

Socialites may have been the given inspiration, but really this was more Daily Mail than Debrett’s, despite the retro forties hints. The signature Scognamiglio sheer panelling and grey leopard print – one of the only injections of colour in an otherwise monochrome showing – could have slipped straight off the runway onto the backs of Petra, Tamara, Maria, Lydia and the like.
